A free When2meet alternative, with no accounts
Overlap does what you came to When2meet for — one link, everyone marks when they are free, best time wins — and then puts that time in everyone’s calendar. Nobody signs up for anything.
The difference is what happens after the group agrees. Overlap turns the winning time into a real calendar invitation, sent from the organiser's own calendar with a Meet link, so nobody has to copy the time into a chat and hope.

- When2meet has no calendar integration of any kind. Once the group agrees a time, telling everybody is still a job for the organiser. ↩
- When2meet has no pricing page and asks for no billing details. The advertising sits on event pages rather than on the homepage. ↩
When When2meet is the better answer
You want the absolute minimum and nothing else: no calendar step, no invitations, no account anywhere, and a page that has worked the same way for years.
Why people go looking
The interface is hard to use on a phone, and once the group agrees a time you are still the one who has to tell everybody and put it in a calendar.
What Overlap does with your data
Giving an email address is optional, and an address is only ever used to put you on one calendar invitation. There is no advertising and no cross-site tracking. Everything about an event is deleted automatically 365 days after it is created — see the privacy policy, which names every company that receives anything.
Try it against your next actual meeting
The honest test is a real group, not a demo. Create an event, paste the link in the group chat, and see whether it is less work than what you did last time. If it is not, When2meet is still there.
